About

Dr. Samuel Goldfarb is a leading pediatric pulmonologist whose work focuses on advancing diagnostic and interventional bronchoscopy for children. His research has been instrumental in characterizing the adoption and challenges of cutting-edge techniques—such as endobronchial ultrasound (EBUS)-guided biopsies, CT navigation, and robotic bronchoscopy—within pediatric care. A key contribution is his 2024 study, which surveyed U.S. pediatric pulmonologists to reveal critical gaps in training and resource access for these procedures, highlighting the need for standardized protocols to improve outcomes for children with complex airway and lung diseases. With over 8 citations already, this work has quickly become a foundational reference for clinicians and researchers aiming to expand minimally invasive options in pediatric pulmonology. Dr. Goldfarb’s efforts bridge the gap between adult and pediatric practice, advocating for safer, more precise interventions that reduce the need for more invasive surgeries. His dedication to education and clinical innovation positions him as a pivotal voice in shaping the future of pediatric airway management, inspiring a new generation of specialists to embrace advanced bronchoscopic techniques.
